The new Volvo S90 revealed to the Greek public

The presentation for the first time in Greece of the new Volvo S90, by Saracakis Brothers S.A., Official Distributor of Volvo passenger cars, took place yesterday at a special event with great success. The Volvo S90 is an epitome of luxury, with impressive Swedish design, innovative technologies and top performance.

The President of the Saracakis Group of Companies, Mr. Ioannis D. Saracakis in his speech stated: "...For our company, the launch of such a model on the market - as well as the XC90 - is both a wonderful opportunity and a pleasant challenge in order to offer an even higher level of service before, during and after the sale. Just as the new S90 ensures a more carefree and safer drive with the leading innovative systems that bring us closer to autonomous driving, Volvo-Saracakis ensures that the prospective owner of the new S90 is kept at a minimum through a range of personalised services. With a vision of maximum dedication to the customer and their needs combined with the implementation of the Swedish brand's highly demanding specifications, we are completing the implementation of Volvo's new innovative global program, Personal Service Technician. A programme that sets new standards in after-sales service, recognising that each customer has different needs and focusing on meeting them comprehensively.

We are excited about the innovative S90 and are fully confident that it will take the number one position in premium sedan sales, continuing the success already achieved by the XC90, the brand's flagship SUV.

Finally, we are confident and committed to the fact that customers who honour us, from the request for an initial presentation, to ordering their personalised S90 and entrusting us with its maintenance, will enjoy a service worthy of their high expectations from a company that has more than any other company associated its name with Volvo's philosophy and values for more than 65 years."  

The event was followed by the speech of the Swedish Ambassador to Greece, Mrs Charlotte Wrangberg, who said in her speech: "...The new Volvo S90 is proof of Volvo's amazing transformation into a brand that is undoubtedly now officially considered a member of the premium league - and it's here to stay. The new car takes elegance and safety to the next level. I'm really proud and impressed by all of Volvo's new technological achievements, and particularly in environmental matters.

I would also like to take this opportunity to say something about the Swedish business sector in general. Today Sweden has more multinationals per capita than possibly any other country in the world. I am sure that you know many large Swedish companies. But apart from that, we also have a great creative industry in areas such as design, music, games, film, fashion, etc. Many of these companies belong to the small and medium-sized sector.

Volvo is part of that environment and the car on show here today is a perfect example of that. Volvo was created by Sweden and its people. In every way, Volvo is a wonderful ambassador for Sweden. It is a pleasure to be here today. Good luck!" 

Prior to the unveiling of the new S90, the President and CEO of Volvo Car Hellas, Mr: "For 65 years, Saracakis Brothers has been a worthy partner of Volvo.

The S90 is the car for those seeking true, unadulterated prestige in the large premium segment. And if the design or sense of luxury is something subjective, and I await your comments on this after the unveiling, the technology and safety this model offers are truly from the future. With autonomous driving technology, systems that keep the car on course and largely correct driver errors, protect the value of human life and give driver and passengers peace of mind, the new S90 is a unique demonstration of technology and luxury with the stamp of Swedish philosophy and culture." 

In his speech, Mr Petoulis referred to Volvo's Vision 2020, stressing: "with Vision 2020 or Vision 2020, Volvo will have developed all the technology needed to ensure that there is no loss of life or serious injury in one of our models involved in an accident. This is a unique commitment that no other manufacturer has even dared to express."

By introducing the New S90, Volvo Cars shows its determination to dynamically redefine the premium four-door segment.

In the Greek market the Volvo S90 will be available from Volvo-Saracakis Brothers in July 2016.
